Menopause Conversations

Is It Really Menopause… or Something Else?


Listen Later

In this insightful episode, Angela unpacks a powerful truth: not every symptom you’re experiencing is automatically “just menopause.” From brain fog and weight gain to low energy and hair loss, many of the signs we blame on hormones might have deeper underlying causes.

Is the shift in your hormones the cause of your symptoms or triggering some of the symptoms that your hormones were previously masking from other underlying issues?

Angela explores:

  • How thyroid dysfunction (including subclinical issues) may be flying under the radar.
  • The role of nutrient deficiencies like iron, zinc, magnesium, and calcium.
  • Why insulin resistance and that stubborn “meno belly” are often overlooked.
  • The impact of chronic stress and high cortisol on digestion, hormones, and weight.
  • Practical lifestyle shifts for reducing internal stress and supporting your body naturally.

This is a must-listen if you’ve ever been dismissed, told “it’s just your age” or just intuitively know something is not quite right.

You’ll walk away with a clearer picture of what else to check, plus empowering steps you can take to feel like yourself again. Get some answers to questions you have probably been asking for a while now.
